The Black Dragon Cafe: Bud Shumway Mystery Series, Book 16 (Unabridged‪)‬

When Utah Sheriff Bud Shumway gets a strange letter saying a perfect crime is about to be committed, he has no idea that it’s just the beginning of a series of cryptic happenings, from a body that goes missing to finding another that happens to belong to a popular local photographer.

Throw in an assortment of plein-air artists, radio-control pilots (even a blimp!), Van Gogh aficionados (say that real fast), the Invisible Man, a strange canvas with clues painted on it at night, a bicycle-riding thief, a spooky grave, a messenger from another galaxy, a Rockabilly mayor who’s in trouble for his economic-development efforts, and an enigmatic petroglyph, and who could ask for more intrigue and adventure in Utah’s beautiful Black Dragon Canyon?

This is book 16 in the Bud Shumway Mystery Series.
